A CHLID WITH chocolate locks sat in the middle of a small hut playing with wooden toys. Another girl with hair shiny like the sun sat beside her. Faint screaming was heard in another room before a wail. The two small girls looked at each other and smiled before getting up and running into the room.

"What is it, papa? Is it a girl or a boy," the blonde child asked.

"It's a boy," Mikael replied.

"I knew it," the brunette cheered.

"I wanted another sister," the blonde pouted before she went on her tippy toes and looked at the sleeping baby, "But I guess he will do when we play dress up. What do you think Ravenna?"

Ravenna went onto her toes and smiled at the baby, "I think he'll be perfect for dress-up, Freya."


THE SCENE changed and young Ravenna and Freya giggled as they ran around the woods. Ravenna was 5 and Freya was 6. Finn was now 4.

Freya shushed Ravenna before she said aloud, "I wonder where Finny could be hiding?" Faint giggling could be heard from behind a tree in front of them.

"I don't know Freya," Ravenna replied loudly. The two girls then jumped towards the tree.

"Boo!"

Finn squealed and they all laughed.

"Freya! Ravenna! Finn!" They heard Esther call. They ran towards her and saw her standing with a woman. She had hair like the night and, in Ravenna's opinion, evil eyes which immediately darted to Freya who was leading the pack.

"Freya this is Dahlia. My sister. You will be staying with her for a while," Esther explained tearily. Ravenna stepped in front of her older sister.

"Why?"

"This does not concern you, child," Dahlia replied, sidestepping her and grabbing Freya by the wrists.

Freya looked scared and tears gathered in her eyes, "Mama why am I going with her. Did I do something wrong?"

"No child. Your mother and I made a deal and now you have to come with me," Dahlia started to drag the blond away before she screamed out in pain. Ravenna was latched onto her leg and pulling her back. Her petite hands glowed a bright red.

"Ravenna let go," Esther ordered. Finn clutched onto her leg with tears streaming down his red cheeks.

"You're not taking my sister."

Dahlia had enough. She muttered a spell and Ravenna dropped to the ground. She picked Freya up and trudged off into the woods. Esther knelt beside her second oldest child and picked her up going into the house.


RAVENNA was now older. Esther had done spell after spell and twisted her mind into thinking that Freya died of the Plague. When Mikael returned from the battle the family moved. Over the years Ravenna and Fin had gained more siblings. Three little brothers, Elijah, Niklaus then Kol, a sister, Rebekah and another brother Henrik.
